Leica Infrastructure Link discontinued ?

It is July. March was the release date of Civil 3D 2018. There is no Leica Infrastructure Link for it. Maybe discontinued ?

No. Released at the first week of August. Nothing new. Same problems. Same limitations. Just working with C3D2018. Simple DLL recompilation using latest references.

Leica Infrastructure Link multiple baseline corridor export

In case a Corridor consists of more than one Baselines based on different Alignments then all Feature Lines checked in whatever Baseline are exported but only the first Baseline Alignment is exported ! All other are ignored ! Finally only one Layer is created for the entire Corridor.
So it is not possible to set the appropriate Centerline when in RoadRunner.

X-Change was capable of producing multiple Layers.

So it is crucial to work only with X-Change and up to Civil 3D 2016
or
create mutiple Corridors, one for each Baseline
or
do multiple HeXML exports having checked only one Baseline per session but it does not work

Leica Infrastructure Link - Civil 3D corridor export : bug - Layer centerline set to wrong baseline alignment

I had a corridor with multiple baselines attached to multiple alignments.
I unchecked all of them except one of them which it was the only one i wanted to export.
I used Leica Infrastructure Link to export it.
Finally i used the MS XML editor to view the exported HeXML file.

The alignment of the checked baseline was not exported.
Instead of it, the alignment of the first (and unchecked) baseline was exported !
The correct feature lines were exported.
Finally the wrong exported alignment was attached to the layer as a centerline.

 

Leica Infrastructure Link - Civil 3D export corridor : failure - Autocad JIT error message "This operation on featureline-based baseline is invalid"

One of the top rated in the wish list about Civil 3D was the option to create a corridor using feature line baseline type. Civil 3D 2017 was the first version to support it.

Leica X-Change no longer exists since this C3D version.

Its successor Leica Infrastructure Link freeware must be used instead.

Running this addon pressing the "Read Civil Objects" button user sees the following message.

The program stucks at this point.

OR

After reading civil objects when trying to save "Export HeXML" user sees the following message

Well at least it is multithreaded. So in either cases user can press Continue and then the OK button and end this addon. But no export takes place.

Same thing happens even if baselines feature line based are unchecked when rebuilding the corridor.

Only solution is to revert to the previous baseline type method of alignment/profile.



Well. It is obvious that Leica developers did not examine the changes between v2016 and v2107.
In v2017 baselines types can differ. Developer should examine if it is "IsFeaturelineBased" or else the above exception is thrown. At least there should exist a user notification.
